I've had a pair now for approx 2 years and I keep them in a 40gal breeder tank with approx 1/2 water 1/2 land. I use a plastic basin for their water because they get it filthy quickly. I would say they spend 90% of their time in the water! I feed them daily with leaf lettuce and nightcrawlers. This past winter she had 4 single eggs aprox 2 weeks apart-nothing has hatched to date, but I do see them breeding. 2 winters ago she had a couple of small dud eggs. I have no idea how old they are as they're wild caught. I would guess the female is approx 8" long. Hope this helps. Any info you may have on incubation would help. Also I don't brumate these turles as of yet. Maybe why the eggs haven't hatched???

Brian
